Hello
I am experiencing a saving error with progecad.
Problem 1:
After opening a drawing made in progecad 2008 (saved as dwg 2004) i get an information " drawing contains invalid data. It has been saved with that invalid data" . After made an audit and fix errors of the file, the layout tabs dissapear.

Problem 2: sometimes when i close a drawing and choose to save changes, the softwares crashes and stop responding.

The files were created with progecad 2008 pro. In my office we work with Progecad pro 2008, 2009 and 2010. The files are worked by all users. Like all our files, we use blocks libraries created with other cad softwares. So it´s difficult to tell where does the file originally came from.

I've tried to follow the steps of the link you have suggested but it doesn't work. When i copy and save the new file the problem occurs again: when saving the new file i get the information of invalid data.

I've been the reading the forum and i follow the suggestion of a user:
unnistall the last update 10.0.12.04 and reinstall the first version 10.0.8.9.
The software is now working correctly.

Can you tell what are the differences and wich errors/bugs were corrected with the last update?

I tried to create an entire new file with Progecad 10.0.12.4. It seems that this saving errors also appears and the layout will be lost when you try to close the program. Furthermore the software will crash as what art3 has mentioned.

is there a solution to this? or do we all should revert back to 10.0.8.9?

I use progeCAD 2010 (v.10.0.14.9, on WinXP) and it very often crashes (stops, not responding or taking a very long time for completing the task) upon saving or re-saving a file, either one made from scratch or one already made with the above version, opened and edited.

Any suggestions for solving this?

I also get the other error, the one when the software 'dissappears' upon start-up, but this happens occasionally, while the crashing problem upon saving happens almost every time I try to save a file.
